Rafael Almeida | The International MBA

OPTIMISM TO FACE ANY ADVERSITY

Rafael is a problem solver enthusiastic about new challenges. Curious and committed to continuous improvement, he believes that his soft skills are his main advantage. Passionate about people, he sees employee empowerment as the best strategy to create value in companies.

With strong analytical skills, Rafael insists on not forgetting the human variable to better understand reality. Driven by value creation, he always tries to see a holistic perspective of situations and the long-term impact of each decision.

During his professional experience he always managed to follow his dreams and see purpose in everything he did. As a Tourism Product Management graduate, he has worked in several companies in the leisure and entertainment sector and has related with very different stakeholders, facing problems with a smile and not with concern.

Over the last years he worked as a business analyst, where he had contact with businesses which were completely different from each other. This experience allowed him to grow as a professional in the area of services and advertising, events, ticketing and digital business.
The good results achieved meant that the professional was the choice in several projects and the one his colleagues were looking for to tackle problems.
Now, Rafael has chosen to study again, in order to try and take a new step in his career.
